CZ 83 To Cease Being Imported
Updated: January 9th, 2013
CZ USA has posted their list of discontinued products for 2013. On that list is all four of the CZ 83 SKUs they currently sell. It looks like they will no longer be importing the CZ 83. CZ USA touted the “moderate weight” of the CZ 83 as an advantage over the light polymer carry pistols of their competitors. At 28 oz it is a fair bit heavier than even other all steel carry pistols like the Walther PPK/S (22 oz).
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

Aww man, the day was going so well! And to end it on this downer :<
I'm slightly more distraught about not being able to procure a CZ 75 or 97b. I've been looking forward to owning one of those since I was a child.
